Talk:Mr Sweet
From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference
Does this really need disambiguation?[[edit source]]
Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't he (or it) only referred to as 'Mister Sweet'? So shouldn't the page be called 'Mr Sweet' or 'Mister Sweet'? Memnarc ☎ 04:40, May 12, 2013 (UTC)
- I agree. Or as the novelisation puts it, "Mr Sweet". – n8 (☎) 19:12, 30 March 2021 (UTC)
- I don't know. Sweetville is, we are told, named after Mr Sweet. Since it's "Sweetville" instead of "Mister-Sweet-ville", that would suggest that in this case, the leech is genuinely named in the same way as a normal human name — with "Sweet" as the proper name and "Mr" as a honorific — rather than being more like Doc Holliday or Dr. Who where you can't dissociate the two.

- I don't think that logic holds up. Since you bring up Dr. Who, it's like saying that the Whomobile means his page should really be Who (An Unearthly Child). – n8 (☎) 23:33, 30 March 2021 (UTC)
